Natural Path Sanctuary (NPS) Winter Burial Workshop
How does the amazing NPS staff prepare for winter burials?
During the winter season, when the snow blankets the Sanctuary and the cold winds blow, how do we ensure a safe winter burial?
Come join us as we demonstrate the process during a mock winter burial by the NPS staff. We will show you how a body is shrouded*, transported to the burial site and lowered into the ground. We will talk about some of the challenges the weather poses and the measures taken to make a winter burial as smooth as possible to provide a peaceful resting place for your loved ones even during the coldest Wisconsin winters.
Please RSVP to programs@farleycenter.org
